Chelsea<\/a> teenager Martell Taylor-Crossdale is a summer target for a number of Premier League and Championship clubs after impressing at youth level, according to Rich Jones of The Mirror<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Martell Taylor-Crossdale Attracting Interest<\/h1>\n

Prolific<\/h2>\n

The 19-year-old has been prolific throughout Chelsea’s youth system. He has scored throughout the youth ranks and represented England from under-16 to under-20 level.<\/p>\n

Taylor-Crossdale’s contract expires this summer and, as a result, is attracting interest from across the country.<\/p>\n

Premier League Southampton<\/a> are one outfit understood to be watching developments<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Championship Interest<\/h2>\n

Taylor-Crossdale could, however, be tempted to a Championship club due to being more likely to obtain regular first-team opportunities.<\/p>\n

Fulham<\/a> could also make an approach this summer as they rebuild after being relegated to the Championship.<\/p>\n

The Whites may be forced into offloading some of their higher-earning players following their relegation from the top flight. Strikers such as\u00a0Aleksandar Mitrovic<\/a> may look to move back into the Premier League to reignite their career.<\/p>\n

The highly-regarded striker at Chelsea is also sought after<\/a> by Bristol City<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Potential For Loan Move<\/h2>\n

Chelsea are well-known for players to depart Stamford Bridge on a temporary basis. 41 Blues players moved away<\/a> from the London side in an attempt to gain regular football.<\/p>\n

The Blues regularly send players away in order to develop; however, most fail to return to the Bridge and instead decide to make permanent moves as a result of the uncertainty of regular playing time.<\/p>\n

Two of the more well known Chelsea academy graduates to be experiencing time out-on-loan from Stamford Bridge are Tammy Abraham and Mason Mount.<\/p>\n

21-year-old Abraham has scored 25 goals from 37 appearances while with Aston Villa<\/a> in the Championship. Meanwhile, 20-year-old Mount has been involved in twelve goals with Derby County<\/a> in England’s second-tier despite enduring an injury-hit campaign for the youngster.<\/p>\n
